    First of all, the responsible stuff. Pay any and all debts, mortgage, bills, etc. Invest. Give to charity. Help my loved ones. Upgrade my car. Then I'd quit my job and travel the world. Then I'd get every conceivable electronic gaming system, possibly not leaving my house for a year or two... or ten. And in between, I'd play stupid, elaborate pranks on my friends (like turn their houses around a quarter turn and watch the confusion when they come home).
